About This Experience
Skydive EFES is operated by Türk Hava Kurumu — the Turkish Aeronautical Association, Turkey's national aerosport federation — from Selçuk on the Aegean coast in İzmir Province, near the ancient city of Ephesus. Tandems jump from approximately 4,000 m (~13,000 ft) over the rolling Aegean coastline with views of the Ephesus archaeological zone, Mount Pion, and the Aegean Sea horizon. Professional camera footage is included in every package — both hand-cam and outside-camera coverage where available. The federation framing matters: as a national aerosport authority operation rather than a private commercial DZ, Skydive EFES applies federal regulatory standards to instructor certification, equipment maintenance, and operational windows. The operator is a USPA member club. Beyond tandem first-timers, the dropzone runs a full Accelerated Freefall (AFF/HSD) programme, advanced coaching, and wingsuit flying for licensed jumpers — pricing on inquiry for the training tracks. Group bookings of four or more attract a per-person discount. The right jump for travellers on a Turkey itinerary including Ephesus, Pamukkale, or Şirince, for couples adding an unusual tandem to a Mediterranean trip, and for licensed jumpers visiting Turkey wanting to add a national-federation DZ to their logbook. Turkey's geographic position straddles Europe and Asia — Skydive EFES sits firmly on the Aegean side, making it accessible from European departure points as well as the broader Middle Eastern travel circuit.
